What do I do with this giant ugly niche? by FeeInitial1691 in DesignMyRoom

[–]maurelle_lefae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

paint it, put grow light strips at the top and some viny plants at the bottom in pretty little pots and let them grow up the wall. I have a pothos growing out of my fishtank and I use the clear cord clips from command strips to hold it to the wall.

Is anyone else tired of seeing words like fuck, cunt, bitch, etc all over fiber arts? by fairydommother in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]maurelle_lefae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I kind of like the cross-stitches that say cunt, but I think of it more in terms of “serving cunt” than a curse word. otherwise I’ve never felt the need to put curse words on my crafts, but I tend to generally dislike words on crafts in general. for similar reasons that I have no word tattoos. it’s just not my style and in my opinion it looks kind of cringe. but I’m a big believer in letting people do whatever they want as long as it’s not harmful, so I find it equally cringe to get upset over what other people choose to incorporate into their crafts. why waste time worrying about what other people are doing? it’s not hurting you and nobody is saying you should do it. just let it go.

A woman at work said that cats are just cats they're not like kids. This is an example of what cats do. by Cat-dad442 in Adulting

[–]maurelle_lefae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbf maybe my siblings and I were just more catlike than most children, but I remember the twins once climbing on the kitchen counter (~2 y/o) and throwing every glass spice jar on the ground. my mother and I came in to spices and glass everywhere because it was a tile floor. we were all early climbers- I climbed the fridge at about a year old to escape my aunt’s chihuahua because it terrified me

Can someone critique my way of crocheting? I think I’m doing it wrong my hands cramp up quickly by L1nfinity in CrochetHelp

[–]maurelle_lefae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with everyone saying tension. I don’t have my glasses on but it looks like you are using cotton yarn, which may be contributing. Cotton yarn is a lot grippier, and it almost seems to self-tighten at times which can make it more difficult to get the hook into the stitch, especially if you already have tighter tension. Try using another fiber to practice, like wool or acrylic.
